Aaron Hightower, VP of Gaming Technology for NTEK Gaming Labs has accepted a seat on the Board of Directors for NTEK. The addition of Aaron Hightower to NTEK's executive team is to head the Las Vegas Gaming operations. Aaron brings over twenty years of experience in gaming design, specifically in the realm of 'repeat gameplay' design. Previously, Mr. Hightower worked as a lead engineer at IGT where he researched, developed, and presented new technologies and methods for creating compelling video gaming products for the gaming industry. Mr. Hightower's design specialty lies in 'hardcore repeat gameplay' - games with repetitive actions that result in various outcomes depending somewhat on strategy but mostly on chance. Most commonly, this type of gameplay is associated with arcade games and slot machines. Based in Las Vegas, Mr. Hightower has witnessed firsthand the need to revolutionize this type of gameplay with updated high definition displays. "Right now there is an opportunity to bring 4K Ultra HD and Glass Free 3D technology to the casino industry," says Hightower. "NTEK understands the value of expanding into this market as people will be able to experience 4K gaming in casinos before they have it in their homes. NanoTech is truly bringing the Future of Entertainment(SM) to consumers, and I am extremely excited to be part of this driven and forward-thinking team."

Peter Riordan, previously NanoTech's Vice President of Strategic Planning, has been named the new CEO of NanoTech Entertainment and has been appointed to the Board of Directors. In his new position, Peter will focus on the overall corporate strategy, completing the audit process and up listing. He will also provide support for each business unit head to facilitate their continued success in their various endeavors. Jeff Foley, NanoTech's former CEO, remains on the Board of Directors and will be focusing on expanding the licensing of several of the company's patent pending technologies and franchising opportunities. Riordan noted, "I've been fortunate to work with Jeff, Al and Ted over the past year in formulating a plan to take NanoTech to the next level. We have performed well on all fronts in our transition from the R&D phase to product delivery. By reorganizing the management structure to have each business unit have a focused set of goals and leadership, we believe that we can bring the greatest value to our shareholders this year."

I know each and everyone of you could have simply taken the time to do this search yourselves but most people don't have the time or the desire and they make the mistake of listening to the wrong sources...people like the fools who have been banned from BIG's sponsored NTEK page and/or ours. It seems that they are congregating on the NANO Fans page which is turning into the new liehub. Bashing NTEK, NTEK leadership, NTEK's Board of Directors, David Foley, BIG and myself. I don't mind if people bash me since I would need to respect them for it to bother me but to do it to NTEK who can't defend itself is wrong. To potentially influence new NTEK shareholders or potential shareholders who may think that these loud mouthed opinionated idiots know what they're talking about when they have their heads so far up their backsides really annoys me. I'm surprised that with three members on that page who are with a division of NTEK or an affiliate company that they would be so bold but I guess they don't feel that anyone will forward those comments on to NTEK Legal so that something can be done about it.

* FROM A PRIOR POST . Only one post can be pinned so I'm adding it here:

*TEN BEST's that NTEK has since their 2013 Annual Shareholder meeting.

BEST MasterMind team of top industry expertise anywhere.

BEST 4K streamer and only getting better once the updates get released (and remember the Nuvola was a last minute thing since no other OTT set top box was worth anything a year and a half ago).

BEST 4K content library which is growing every week and will be growing in a BIG way once new acquisitions and partnerships get announced.

BEST business model for the Content paying owners each time their content is viewed by anyone anywhere in the world.

BEST 16mm/35mm conversion to 4K team and equipment in the world and at very reasonable prices.

BEST Player Advantage technology in Vegas2047 which will also be in other games and is already touted as being cutting edge and is now wanted by bigger names in the industry. (watch for a spin off).

BEST ice sculpting/carving machinery which will be franchised soon.

BEST retail outlets selling NP-1's and NP-C's like BEST BUY in North America shortly and MediaMarkt in Germany and Europe already.

BEST online stores like Staples.com, Sears.com and a handful of others that will be selling them soon.

BEST 4K tv manufacturers all having the UltraFlix app on their new sets starting this shopping season (Sony, Vizio, Samsung, LG in North America and in Russia add Toshiba to that list) (Watch for UltraFlix to be spun off too)
